Normandy, june 44. Vol. 5. Juno Beach/Dieppe

During the 2<sup>nd</sup> World War, Canada paid a heavy toll when Europe
was liberated. During August 1942, due to the lack of direction, the
landing in Dieppe, named «Operation Jubilee», ended in failure
and heavy losses... But in the end, it proved itself necessary as
it allowed the Allied staff to prepare another one: «Operation
Neptune» that was part of the «Overlord plan» and that was going
to be decisive... On June 6<sup>th</sup> 1944, the Canadian soldiers landed on
Juno Beach. For them, nothing would ever be like before. And yet...
Almost all of these young people were volunteers!
25 years later, one of the survivors participates in a broadcast
relative to the memories of these events. It's on «Radio Montreal»
and the studio is full of emotion.
